According to Rivals, LSU has reached out to Bryce Baker after the departure of Mack Brown from UNC where he is currently committed. You can kinda see the post before the ad shows up

Do we have video, or is this a camp arm?

I think any 4 Star is not *intended* to be "just" a camp arm

Maybe we were excited about the wrong Bryce.

Joe Sloan will not be denied a Bryce at QB!

He's 6'2.5 200+, on 3 has him as 74th overall, 10th QB. Of his RPM choices we are definitely best. Looks like a great fall back option to get into the program and start learning

Just watched his junior Highlights. Pretty impressive he is mobile but not run first he keeps his eyes down field and throws a solid deep ball. Not a ton of passes shown with zip on this so arm strength was hard to tell but the kid clearly has a good bit of talent and is a pass first mobile QB which I think fits what LSU is looking for.

Perhaps I should have chosen my words more thoughtfully. It’s essential for Joe Sloan and BK to assess whether this kid has the potential to come in and make an immediate impact on the team, shaking things up with his skill set and performance. Alternatively, we need to consider if he’s simply going to serve as just another body to fill the gap left by BU’s departure, lacking the ability to contribute meaningfully.

He's higher-rated than George Macintyre who ended up at Tenner.

I like this kids size; should hold up well w/SEC pounding

How would a top 100 player be just a body?

QB is unlike just about every other position in that if you have a good one you don't expect any of the others to "contribute" that season. Also, no position has been effected more by the transfer rules than QB. Teams can get a great, proven QB, from the portal. However, you still want to sign HS prospects as well to give you the largest pool possible to choose from. A top 100 prospect and top 10 QB prospect is not just "another body". He may never play a down for you, but you want to have the opportunity he might if he's good enough.

Best case scenario is Nuss returns as your starter for next season and you have a handful of guys behind him to evaluate if any can be your starter of the future. No, this guy wouldn't be the #1 prospect overall. But he's not a bum either.
